G'day all,
I now know that stress turns me to food/drink
I hade a disastrous day yesterday but all has ended well.
I will try not to bore you too much but my computer had 'died' due to some software I had loaded that was not compatible. Our biggest concern was the many photos I have stored on my computer and of course only some were backed up
After wrecking our brains, more dh than me, he is the technical one
, we somehow extracted all the photo files, I also spotted the offending program, deleted that and voila I was up and running again
, no need to reformat the hard drive and re-load all my programs. In the meantime I now have 7 CD's with all my backed up files, so the day was not a total loss but I must say I was VERY worried.
I have heard of both
Teva and Birckenstock sandals/shoes. Both brands are quite expensive here and are very trendy with the young outdoor types. I guess that comes as no surprise to either
Slavika or
Marnie I don't want to dampen the spirit of you young outdoors types, but Clark clogs are not quite as trendy
Trudy as I am reading your post and picturing your tulips, how disappointing to have them 'picked' (read stolen
) by some person.
I have been told, it is some type of celiac disease. I try and avoid wheat but I am not overly fussy and I feel OK. I am feeling a lot better than I have for some time
At f-i-l's birthday party, dh's eldest brother (you may remember his wife dying of lung cancer last year) has Parkinson Disease. He was diagnosed shortly before the death of his wife. Of course with us being away all the time, we don't see him very often. To see him last Saturday was quite a shock, his 90 year old father looked fitter! He has deteriorated so much since we last saw him 4 months ago, he was just a pathetic old man (he is 10 years older than dh, 66) very sad indeed. Makes my aches and pains seem very minor.
Marnie Hope your cold is getting better. Probably quite stupidly, I said to dh the other night that I cannot remember the last time I had a cold, hope I haven't jinxed myself in getting one now! I would love to share the poster, however it is huge and would take forever to download and you would all be cursing me
Slavika Your poor son, I am sure his children will be reminding him a few more times about dropping the spare ribs on your carpet
Sounds like you had a lovely day.
The gift from your d-i-l sounds lovely, very unusual.
Well I am not stressed today, computer is working like a treat again
I bought some new software to archive all my photos, it is the best but lots to learn to use it to it's maximum potential so I will be doing that today.
Have a great day all
Cheers
Maria
